I have waited to replace this card for ten years. When I sold it at a show I just knew I was going to regret with only 900 produced. I had high hopes for this guy and thought he was going to be exciting in the NBA.

The card I had was probably PSA 8 quality and hated to sell it for $225.00 .




Card I replaced after ten years.

Congrats on the replacement. I love stories like this. I remember selling/trading a Eddie George Topps Chrome refractor RC (in 96) to a dealer/friend of mine. He gave me 150 cash and about 300 in trade. He also snagged off of me a Anthony "Penny" Hardaway Finest gold embossed refractor I pulled. It came out in the book at 800 (Jordan was 1200) he paid dearly for that. Its funny how we thought these rookies / inserts were the next big thing and were going to make us rich someday. Some of them we were right on (93 Finest refractors, 96 Mirror Gold, Jordan inserts, etc.) But how many were we so wrong on... Darius Miles, being a Cavs fan I remember him, 3rd overall by the Clippers right out of high school.

I regreted selling Jerome Walton 1989 UD and 90 Leaf Kevin Maas for 15.00 each back them. How many of us still have those laying around.

Nice pick up.
